    I have been writing about mistakes in every series for years, since the days of the Turksportal forum. Unfortunately, there is a structure that doesn’t accept criticism.

    Same similar problems every year. You pay for the game and get it; AI errors, goalkeeper playing as a forward, rule errors, transfer periods without transfers, incorrectly entered profile data, etc. As the Turkish player community, we really love this game and want to contribute, so we buy and review the game in Early Access. We point out the bugs and they say, "It will be fixed with the February update." Since there are so many bugs, not all of them will be fixed in the February patch, we write again and they say "It will be fixed next year”. This is a never-ending and constantly repeating loop.

    This year people really rebelled. There are discussions on X involving FM content producers. I think this should be closely examined by SI general management.

    Do you remember a Football Manager series where the Turkish League was reflected in the game in a realistic and enjoyable way? I don’t remember…

    On the contrary.  We are very happy to receive any criticism and issue reports with a view to improving gameplay in Turkey.

    However the things you mention are often out of our control.
    For example the Turkish FA announcing drastically changed rules every season which the game AI struggles to deal with, then the FA abandoning this rule only a year later when they finally come to their senses and realize it's not workable.
    For example the game not being able to deal with deficit spending (until this version), something clubs in Turkey have often relied on, and hence transfers looking strange.

    I encourage you to keep offering critiques while recognizing that despite best efforts sometimes it's not possible to reflect both reality and enjoyable gameplay.  Especially in the chaotic environment of Turkish football where rules frequently change or are relaxed when clubs demand.

    A number of the points you raise are beyond the remit of the research team. If you're getting AI errors such as a goalkeeper playing as a forward, that is a bug the developers would need to investigate. Should you be experiencing any such issues in the early access for FM24 you can post these here: All Other Issues - Bug Tracker - Sports Interactive Community (sigames.com)

    If aspects of leagues aren't working correctly, this would be something to share with the developers here: Competition, Rules and Scheduling Issues - Bug Tracker - Sports Interactive Community (sigames.com)

    The Turkish research team, and no research team in general, are responsible for bug fixes. Should you feel there are issues with specific player/club data examples in the FM24 Early Access we welcome posts on these with a clear stating of what you feel is wrong, what it should be & why. As this thread isn't offering that to the researchers it will be closed.
